Car Talk / Honda Use To Be The Favourite Choice Of Car In The South. by AutoManual: 8:50pm On Feb 19 |
I remember early 20s, honda was the favourite and first choice, and what that they have a nickname to theirs generation series. honda Hala, honda bulldog. Honda baby boy. End of discussion Discussion continue Evil spirit. I think it's was from the evil spirit people started moving away from honda. Because the EOD in town started pulling of legs here and there. This created a bad name and reputation for honda in the South. And besides honda flop with the design of evil spirit company to the rival Camry. The Camry of that generation was more unique and more acceptable. That begin the end of honda acceptance especially the EOD leg pulling. 2 Likes |
Car Talk / Is The Prices On Jiji Cars The Truth And Reality on Current Price? by AutoManual: 8:03pm On Feb 18 |
The price of car right now is just something else. SUV is a no go area currently. I initially wanted a small SUV. But the price and maintaince atleast one should avoid them now due to the current economic hardship and survival instinct everybody needs to cut cost of living. also with the increase of fuel in no distance which is coming soon as it's inevitable, one should avoid big engine and v6 above. There will be fuel increase this year. I have been looking at the 2012 - 2015 honda civic. But the price is just going up everyday.

First thing to do is drain and flash. Use the correct aft and gauge. Is look like the fluid boils when engine is hot. Original transmission will not do that even when it’s over gauge. |

Politics / Re: Is Honda Front Wheel Issue A Universal Problem? by AutoManual: 4:49pm On Sep 17, 2023 |
Honda made a mistake which was corrected many years ago, most of these countries have dumped those models for upgrade. Its more rampant in 3rd world country due to two factors. Bad road and aftermarket parts. And lastly 3rd world country use cars till it dies due to poverty. Repeating this old question is not necessarily in 2023. Toyota has their engine problems |
Car Talk / Vulcanizer Inflate My Tyre To 60. by AutoManual: 9:17am On Sep 17, 2023 |
I was driving yesterday when I saw a vulcanizer. I have noticed my weight. and told him to check that my tyres. he check it and the tyre was 45 which is okay, he then check my right and said it's 60 it will need to bring it down. I was suprise when he told me one of the tyre is 60. Probably from a vulcanizer who I told to check it and he added air just to collect money. Nigerians are wicked minded. |
Family / Relationship Always Comes To An End If A Girl Ask Her Boyfriend His Future Plan by AutoManual: 4:30pm On Sep 06, 2023 |
Relationship always comes to an end if a girl ask her boyfriend his future plan for her? Majority of reasonable guys find it hard to answer such questions and it always lead to partial breakup or a complete breakup. The reason is not far fetched. Most guys will respond that if she has anyone ready to marry her she can go ahead as they don’t want any future blame should in case they were unable to marry her. This response doesn’t always go well for the girls as sentiment set in like the guy is not really serious with her. Infact even if a guy responds positively, he might start pulling himself back little by little after she ask him that question. 90% of the time, relationship never continue as it were before after such question. |

Car Talk / Re: Missing Catalyst Converter And Oxygen Sensor Doesn’t Consume Fuel by AutoManual: 8:39am On Sep 05, 2023 |
Elxandre:2008/12 Honda Civic fuel consumption in city - 9.7 l/100km, highway fuel economy - 5.5 l/100km. Fuel tank capacity is 50 litres or 13.21 gallons, when you car shows yellow light you still have about 10L. 50L is 500km at most. In your case consider poor fuel, aging and reservoir in your tank, you can’t empty the full tank. So let say 40l might be usable. 400km is not bad afterall. |

Car Talk / Re: Missing Catalyst Converter And Oxygen Sensor Doesn’t Consume Fuel by AutoManual: 1:20pm On Aug 31, 2023 |
Update. I there was a total of 60 miles. When i drove it yesterday to filling station. I added 1.5 miles that 61.5 miles. I bought fuel N4000 @610 it was 6.5 fake litters. From my previous observations of that filling station 6L is 5L. So i will just assume it was 5.5 litters. I was surprised the way the gauge went up it crossing quarter of the gauge. The car is now 76 miles. That means i added 16 miles. I will just wait again until the yellow light come on and check the miles by than i will know the actual rate. Total fuel added 22 real litters. Currently 76 miles. Waiting till the yellow light will come on. |

emy77:is your downstream oxygen sensor bad? |
Car Talk / Re: Missing Catalyst Converter And Oxygen Sensor Doesn’t Consume Fuel by AutoManual: 11:05pm On Aug 28, 2023 |
emy77: I guess the downstream sensor after the catalyst is not important like that, that one is the efficiency of the catalyst reading. The main one is the upstream before the catalyst. Used oxygen sensor they said 10k that why I didn't buy. and I wasn't really sure of the impact. Form my observations, When my yellow 🟡 light come on I drive 3 miles to filling station then Added 3 gallons. The yellow 🟡 light disappeared. I quickly reset my trip meter. Then the yellow 🟡 came on at 50 exactly 50miles. I still continue to drive the car for 10miles and parked it. There was alot of ON and OFF on idles this one will consume some amount of fuel too. This evening I bought 5litter in gallon and pour inside. I start the car. To my shock the yellow 🟡 light is still on. Because I only added 10miles after it comes on. It maybe that if the yellow 🟡 come on. For instance when you have 10L and you waste 3l from it. If you add 5l making 12L the yellow light will still show. Maybe if you have something much more in there before it will go. I will need to experiment with this to be sure. Because this night own wan confused me why the yellow 🟡 light on after adding a gallon. |

Car Talk / Missing Catalyst Converter And Oxygen Sensor Doesn’t Consume Fuel by AutoManual: 11:57am On Aug 28, 2023 |
As far as your exhaust manifold doesn’t have any leak. Absence of catalyst or oxygen sensor will not consume fuel. accord v6 has 4 oxygen sensor and 3 catalyst. But my accord only has 1 catalyst at the bottom. The two upper catalyst is missing. Now 1 downstream oxygen sensor was bad. I still manage to pull 17-18mpg city driving. When my exhaust was leaking it was consuming fuel. But all this while I thought it was the catalyst. But since I went to fix the exhaust leak i was getting 18mpg with real liters of fuel not the fake from filling station. I waited for the yellow light to come on. Drive to filling station and bought the original 3 gallon 12 liters. You can buy into container to be sure it’s actually original liters you pour inside. When I drive and the yellow light come up. To my calculations its 17-18mpg. Despite absence of catalyst and 1 bad o2 sensor. |
